Occasionally we will be temporary  o/s  as we  could be awaiting a restocking  of rails,  it is very seldom we cannot  provide a good fitting rail for a buyer There are many different rail types and different variation of sizes.

　　EXAMPLE:

　　One of the biggest misconceptions of  old  iron beds  is that all cone  shape iron rails are

　　the same.

　　When these beds were made around 100 to 150 years ago, there

　　was no industry standard for bed rail connection systems.

　　Each

　　manufacturer made their own rails to fit only their beds.

　　While many

　　appear similar some may

　　have

　　subtle differences.(the differences cause a mis-fit  and can even cause a broken rail or  connection if force (steel hammer)  is applied to the connection, we have seen hundreds of beds  and rails broken because of this pressure  , in our bed rail business we sometime recommend a  short bed  rail sample to determine the correct rail type if there is a question with a fit, this insures a good fitting rail with no costly rail return. you can order rails samples here   ebay listing here  copy  and paste in search box BED RAIL SAMPLE for Iron Beds (samples to test fit, not for sale) 30.$ refunded item  #

　　Steel Hammers are never recommendedWhen Installing a bed

　　rail on an iron bed NEVER USE A HAMMER. A hammer can break the bed hitch

　　or the bed rail.Sometimes the hitch can have a accumulation of  rust

　　preventing it from seating  correctly, use a tubing wire brush to clean

　　all these connections, We use a rubber mallet to install bed rails.

　　Sometimes a steel hammer is necessary but only to Remove or Uninstall

　　the bed rail (from the  bottom only  (never to install rail )_______________________________________________________________________________ IF YOU WOULD LIKE
